1、Designation:D795215Standard Test Method forMeasuring Aspiration Potential of Aerosol Products1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7952;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A numbe
2、r in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers a small-scale laboratory proce-dure to determine the aspiration potential of aerosol productsby determining spray patter
3、n and aerosol deposition rates.1.2 This test method has been developed to address a needto identify which aerosol products may present an aspirationrisk such that special labeling and/or child-resistant packagingwould be appropriate.Studies based on this method may allowthe development of a practice
4、 to identify such aerosol products.1.3 Although this method may be useful for testing non-pressurized aerosol products,its development has been limitedto testing pressurized aerosols.1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.The values given in parentheses are mathemati

9、d3.1 After shaking and discarding 5 s worth of spray,the testaerosol is sprayed onto a test cup held in place with sticky waxfrom an aligning apparatus(see Fig.1)for 5 to 7 s.The test cupis weighed before the test and within 60 s after concluding thetest.4.Significance and Use4.1 This test method pr
10、ovides a means of measuringwhether or not an aerosol product may present an aspirationrisk if a dispensed aerosol gets into ones mouth.4.2 The degree of risk for aspiration of an aerosol dependsboth on spray pattern as well as aerosol deposition rate.24.3 This test method will be used to determine t
